Somerset Smyth Private Kindergarten

Somerset Smyth Private Kindergarten Building community; strong, respectful partnerships with families. Supporting the growth of your child’s social and emotional skills. Having fun together!

2 private kindergartens where your infant, toddler or preschooler is safe, can develop sociallly, have fun and learn early math and literacy skills amongst similar age peers. At Somerset Smyth we believe that the best educational start is achieved through:
The support of caring and passionate teachers who genuinely know and love each child. Providing a semi structured, educational environment rich in engaging language, literacy and early mathematical experiences. Why is Somerset Smyth the best start for your child?
* At Somerset Smyth your child is not just a number amongst a big group of children. Here we genuinely care, love and nurture your child, doing whatever it takes to ensure they are happy, having fun and engaged in learning.
* Somerset Smyth is a leader in early childhood education, maintaining commitment to quality education through ensuring that our teachers are qualified, our programmes reflect recent research on best teaching practice and our curriculum encompasses those attributes children will need to succeed in the developing world. Somerset Smyth Curriculum
Our curriculum at Somerset Smyth is different to that in most Early Childhood Centres. It has quite definite learning outcomes in literacy, science+tech, mathematics, the arts, ourselves+ others. Lets face it, kids need to be kids so learning is woven into fun and engaging activities! What our parents say
“Somerset Smyth is a family, a community where our whole family feels welcome and loved.”
“Welcoming, personal, educational, supportive. The way the team works together makes it a happy place to be – including art work, activities seems effortless, although I know you all work extra hard behind the scenes!
“I loved seeing my daughter’s abilities develop, self esteem grow. All the opportunities available, such a trips, art, play and performances.
“The strengths of the kindergarten are definitely the school preparation and still allowing kids to be kids- messy play and independence.”

Hi all -)
Somerset Smyth will be open as normal tomorrow - we have planned for a couple of inside days 😊
If this changes due to the Ministry of Education recommendation or if our premises are unsafe due to storm related debris we will let you know asap. We will complete a full safety check early tomorrow morning.
Please let us know if your child will be away due to storm related concerns.
Stay dry everyone!

Good Afternoon whanau, as part of our Matariki learning we have been looking at the different stars, the moon and planets. This week we are wanting to use paper mache to support our learning. If anyone has any newspaper at home that we could use, we would appericate if you could drop it off to the Junior Classroom.
